That's the amount of taxes that companies/people legally owe but don't pay (and are collectable).

It's not really related to the amount of taxes that are legally avoided by big businesses through techniques like this "double Irish Dutch sandwich."

I'm not sure that my preferred outcome is relevant to what the other person meant, but I would like a simpler tax structure and higher-than-current effective rates for wealthy entities.
